·         How to stay on the right side of the privacy line and still use the advantages ‘big data’ offers

·         What impact will recent CRTC Decisions (i.e. Wireline and Wireless access, ‘pick and pay’) and the recent CETA and TPP trade agreements have on the Canadian competitive landscape?

·         Is it time to include broadband as a basic service and if so, on what terms?
